Where Imported Wines Come From.

IINetU IOTh UTNpHlc.I
According to a recent authority the time is
not far off when Americans will drink home
grown wine. 1t might be said that the time
has already arrived when the consumption OF
native wine exceeds that of the foreign pro-
duct. Statistics show that about 10, 100000 gall
Ions are sold annually in this country as i'm
ported wine, but when this is compared with
the importations it appears that at least two
thirds Of it must be American wine, which is
doctored with havoring extracts, logwood, and
so forth, and put in bottles decorated with for
eign tables to deceive the public. Both red and
white wines are notoriously sdulterated in this
manner. and much that Is sold without having
been subjected to chemical processes is palmed
off by Inscriptions dealers as a foreign wine
A great deal of it Is bottled in this city and in
Hoboken.
